FATEHGARH SAHIB, Punjab—During the Panthik conference at Fatehgarh Sahib on December 26, the Shiromani Akali Dal (Amritsar) President Simranjit Singh Mann sought the imposition of Anandpur Sahib Resolution of 1973, announcing that it would favour Punjab and it’s people. The notion of pressurizing the Punjab government to adopt the Anandpur Sahib Resolution was put forward by United Akali Dal President Mohkam Singh, to which Simranjit Singh Mann agreed and sought its imposition.
Blasting the ruling SAD-BJP alliance in Punjab as an anti-Panthik alliance, Mann said that it was very unfortunate that the desecration culprits couldn’t be traced even after the passage of more than a year.
Appealing to Punjab masses to support his party for the formation of ‘Sarkar-e-Khalsa’ government in Punjab in 2017 assembly polls, Simranjit Singh Mann announced to contest the election in all 117 assembly constituencies, in collaboration with like-minded parties.
Simranjit Singh Mann also asked the ‘Sarbat Khalsa 2015’ appointed Jathedars to take part in the procession to be taken at Fatehgarh Sahib in commemoration of the incomparable martyrdom of Shote Sahizaade Baba Zorawar Singh and Baba Fateh Singh.
Later, Interim Akal Takht Jathedar Dhian Singh Mand announced to take part in procession and warned the Punjab government of serious consequences if it tried bar them.
Jathedar Amrik Singh Ajnala (Jathedar of Takht Sri Kesgarh Sahib) and Jathedar Baljit Singh Daduwal (Jathedar of Takht Sri Damdama Sahib) also addressed the Sikh gatheringat the event.
Prof. Mohinderpal Singh (General Secretary, Shiromani Akali Dal Amritsar) read the message of Akal Takht Jathedar Jagtar Singh Hawara.
It may be recalled here that the Jagtar Singh Hawara was appointed as Jathedar of Sri Akal Takht Sahib at the Sarbat Khalsa 2015’ called at village Chabba on November 10 of 2015. Jathedar Jagtar Singh is currently languishing in Tihar Jail in Delhi.
